Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence Named to NFL All-Under-25 Team

The Jaguars have arguably the top young-gun quarterback in the NFL.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence already has two full seasons and 36 starts under his belt in two years, including a playoff run.

Yet the third-year quarterback is still among the youngest starters at the position in the NFL, with the 23-year-old named to NFL.com's All-Under-25 Team to represent the quarterback position.

"A year ago, I would have scoffed at this selection. That's how much progress Lawrence made in one season with Doug Pederson as his head coach,"

NFL.com

said.

"In 2022, Lawrence demonstrated the ability that made him the most prized prospect in the 2021 NFL Draft, throwing for 4,113 yards and a 25:8 TD-INT ratio. He led the Jaguars to their first playoff win since the

Sacksonville

days. The future will remain bright in Jacksonville for as long as Lawrence is on the roster because he's only going to improve."

In 17 starts in 2022, Lawrence completed 387 of 584 passes for 4,113 yards and 25 TDs. His 387 completions were the most in a single season in franchise history and his five rushing TDs were tied with Garrard for the most in single-season franchise history.

Lawrence joined Bengals QB Joe Burrow and Bills QB Josh Allen as the only players in the NFL with 25-plus passing TDs and at least five rushing TDs. Against the Titans in Week 14, Lawrence set a career-high with 368 yards passing and was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week for his performance.

The second-year quarterback totaled four 300-yard passing games and orchestrated three comebacks of 17-plus points, including a comeback from behind 27-0 in the postseason against the Chargers.

Last year, Lawrence ranked top-8 in DYAR, DVOA, effective yards, interception %, ANY/A, Sack %, and success rate, while also finishing top-10 in EPA/Play and CPOE.

While one of the youngest starters at the quarterback position, Lawrence has consistently been praised inside the building for his maturity level and level-headed personality. The franchise quarterback has arrived in Jacksonville and he is slated to be here for a long time.

"He was very receptive and that's the one thing about Trevor, his maturity level is off the charts. So you're able to sit down and say, here's what we see, here's what we need to improve on. He generally has the same notes for the most part," Jaguars offensive coordinator Press Taylor said about Lawrence this offseason.

"Or we'll ask what are your thoughts? And he kind of says the same things we're tracking. So that's very encouraging for us as a coaching staff to kind of already see the same things, want to improve on the same things, whether that's fundamentals with him or schematics In terms of our whole offense."
